After You Know Me
Written by Gary Melvin : © 2008 No Need to Speak Music (BMI)
You can bet
That fewer words would work for me
It’d mean a little more
Don’t forget
A heavy stare speaks truthfully
Honest as you are
Silence brings confusion
Where clarity calls home
Cry only after you know me
And I know you
Leave only holding a new truth
Believe the fall has taken you higher
So tears have a meaning
Time will pass
Wounds will heal, the sun will rise
Brighter every day
You can guess
The struggle lies on the road to me
Patience teaches all
A coward shuns the mirror
Where courage lights the flame
Cry only after you know me
And I know you
Leave only holding a new truth
Believe the fall has taken you higher
So tears have a meaning
Carry on with faith revived
Follow me home, and be alright
Cry only after you know me
And I know you
Leave only holding a new truth
Believe the fall has taken you higher
Cry only after you know me
And I know you
Leave only holding a new truth
Believe the fall has taken you higher
So tears have a meaning
